The vibes in this mode are -blam!- rancid man. My instincts and many of my skills from playing this game for the better part of a decade are worthless. This might be fun as an [u]alternative[/u] mode, but right now I don't have a casual PvP mode that I can hop into after work, switch my brain off, and blow off some steam. In my opinion, at time of writing it is too drastic of a divergence from what Destiny 2 PvP has been since the end of the double primary system and it should have remained in labs for at least another season.

Checkmate is great! It introduces more variation to control. Aiming and loadouts actually matter
